% readme.txt for "On Income and Wealth Inequality in Turkey" by Orhan Torul and Oguz Oztunali

This zip file contains the codes we use to do the computations and calculations we use in the paper. 

The five folders included in the zip file are as follows:

1) Aiyagari_EndogenousLabor : This folder contains the benchmark Aiyagari environment's codes. to_aiyagari.m file is the main script, which uses other matlab scripts in the folder for computation and calculations.

2) Aiyagari_ExogenousLabor : This folder contains the codes for the exogenous-labor supply counterpart of the benchmark Aiyagari environment. to_aiyagari_exog.m file is the main script, which uses other matlab scripts in the folder for computation and calculations.

3) RepresentativeAgent: This folder contains the codes for the RBC environment with endogenous labor supply. representative.m file is the main script, which uses other matlab scripts in the folder for computation and calculations.

4) RepresentativeAgent_ExogenousLabor: This folder contains the codes for the RBC environment with exogenous labor supply. representative_exog.m file is the main script, which uses other matlab scripts in the folder for computation and calculations.

5) RBCEndogenousLaborCounterfactual: This folder contains the codes for welfare calculations when labor supply is elastic and the representative household, who internalizes her decisions on factor prices uses her intratemporal margin when responding to changes in her consumption. representative_counterfactual.m file is the main script, which uses other matlab scripts in the folder for computation and calculations.
